Shop labor up here at a decent shop is around $85 an hour. $412 is not that far off, dont worry about it. You will have a nice rear end (no jokes about that comment) when it is done.

I agree, there is a process to setting up a rear end properly. There are alot of "Wrenchers" out there that will tell you the rights and wrongs to the whole process, BUT, they can probably learn a thing or two. I have done it in the past, but when it came to my last couple of rear ends, I gave it to someone else that had the time and parts on the bench to do it in a short order. Never be embarrassed, unless yo drop your shorts at a wedding.
